Hate to give a bad review but it's about the facts. That said, it's not a good park. The people who run it are very nice and helpful but we weren't happy at all. We were booked for several nights but only stayed one. The 30 AMP power wasn't strong enough to run the AC and the TV. Forget about a microwave or hair dryer. The WiFi was non-existent. There are maybe 12 sites in the place with 9 or 10 being old full timers. The laundry was being worked on and didn't go into the restroom. We

We had hoped to stay at this RV Park, and reserved a site the previous day. However, when we arrived and hooked up at our 30 Amp site, our voltage meter displayed 104 volts with NO appliances or anything on. We tested the system by briefly turning on our electric hot water heater, which dropped the voltage to 98. We tried plugging in to the adjacent vacant site. The same problem occurred. Although the camp host was very pleasant, he acknowledged that campers who "use a meter" have said that before (i.e. that the voltage is too low). Kindly, we explained we could not stay and risk our electrical appliances and we relocated to another campground in the area. We

Tips for other Campers:

ask about the swimming hole across the road. wifi is very good. Camp hosts friendly and helpful. General store is a neat place with a large assortment of hiking stuff and fly fishing stuff plus assortment of microbrews and wine. Nice.

Great food, friendly staff and a chance for a cocktail or three within walking range of the rig more than make up for the lack of Wi-Fi and cable. This is camping in the country with lots of grass and plenty of shade to read under. A Washington state favorite for me and my family. We

It was kind of a fluke we stayed here. We had a mix up on reservations at nearby Alta Lake (on fourth of July weekend) and were stuck at the last minute trying to find a place somewhat near Brewster, Washington. We went into this park not knowing what to expect and left feeling pleasantly surprised. Although it's not the "prettiest park" (the maintenance man's house was right next door and it was a sight to behold), the little town of Carlton was actually a fun place to discover. The owners of the RV park also own the restaurant right next door, which had great food, and the grocery store just a little further down. I was able to get Wi-Fi at the restaurant, but not at our spot. Each site has a small amount of shade, some sparse grass and nice picnic tables and chairs on a first come first get basis. The downside of this place is there is no view whatsoever. Just a highway with brush in between the campground on one side and then a field on the other. However, the big draw is a little swimming hole right across the highway, although not within view of the RV park. It had a decent sized sandy beach and swimming hole along the Methow River. Lots of rafting, fishing and sunbathing. We have 3 kids and they had lots of fun playing in the sand and the very cold water of the Methow. We

This is the worst park we have been at in 10 years of RVing. We made reservations, but there was no spot reserved for us. The spot left was short, uneven (like rolling waves) and 15 amp service. We couldn't find any owners in the area to help us. The park was like someone's un-kept backyard and that was the size of the whole park. We would never ever stop here again. We
